Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Destination GO at none against truTV's shown. Destination GO also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). truTV's advantage is ratings volume (14K vs 2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
